house. he is going to florida, where he will tour hurricane-ravaged parts of the state, along with his wife. he will meet can governor desantis. he also will impact people most impacted by this hurricane. also, we learned this morning the white house is extents the disaster declaration by 30 more days. as residents return to sanibel island for the first time, the city manager dana sowa has this warning ahead of the visit. >> it's going to hit home. it's going to be emotional when they see their properties are close and the amount of damage the storm inflicted upon them. >> we know more than 100 deaths from hurricane ian. officials say more than 2300 people have been rescued so far. let's begin this hour with
7:01 am
carlos suarez. just for people to be clear, that's an access point to pine island, right? business owners and residents are getting to go back and see firsthand the damage? >> reporter: that is exactly right, poppy. there are two things happening now across southwest florida. first, the folks who live on san able island, this morning for the very first time, the folks who live there get their first opportunity to go back home since that storm hit. emergency official are being strict with how folks can get back out. you have to do it by private boat, you have to have a special pass. residents are being told you can only take one guest. they're going to allow the folks to be there for a few hours, then they have to come back. state official are trying to reconstruction that causeway
7:02 am
that was wiped out. here in matlacha, eastbound taking to boats to get to pine island, a barrier island. they just have been showing up here at matlacha, and boat captains are saying if you need a ride, we'll take you over there, you can grab some items and you can come back. the national guard, along with a number of volunteer organizations have also been airlifting bottled wart, food and other supplies to this part of the county. it is quite bit. we're talking about a barrier island pretty large in size. so part of the problem is not only just getting there, but trying to get around that island, which is why the guard has brought in some buggies and other modes of transcription so that folks can try to get back to their home. against this morning, the two things taking place are in
7:03 am
sanibel and matlacha so fox can get back for the first time. >> it will be incredibly painful to see aft destruction. at any moment, the president will demart the white house. le will tour storm damage, meet with residents and business owners impacted by the hurricane. ar arlette saenz, can you walk us thus what the extension of the emergency declaratdeclaration. >> reporter: poppy, that allows for more federal resources to go to the state in the wake of hurricane ian. it's making funding available for debris removal and other emergency protected measures for a total of 60 days.
7:04 am
the recovery is expected to take quite some time in the state of florida. the president traveled to puerto rico on monday, and now today he and the first lady will be -- you can hear marine one landing now. he's expected to left in the next few minutes. they will get a tour of some of the storm ravaged area as they fly to fisherman's wharf. there the president will be receiving a recovery and rescue briefing from local officials. that is where it is expected that president biden will be briefed by florida governor ron desantis on the recovery efforts post-hurricane ian. the two men have many political differences, but the white house has insisted they will put politics aside in this moment.
7:05 am
>> arlette saenz, thank you very much. many floridians are still without power. one of the state's largest power companies, florida power & light, says it expects complete restoration of power. that's not all. there's other big power generators there, but that's good news. mike, thanks for being here. you throughout have said that you guys have been relatively lucky, compared -- relatively speaking, compared to a lot of folks, but on sunday, you said you still had half your residents without power. what is the situation for them now? >> yes, thank you, poppy.
7:06 am
that world "relatively" is the operative once. as of this morning, we have less than 2500 of our people without power. that's a total number of connections of 19,000. we have come a lot way. our local provider has done a fantastic job of pushing that rock and getting people on. we're veg close to having 100% with power. >> can you just talk about the human toll, the human impact, the emotional ups and downs, and then they see images of their businesses, and then they look at it in person. i mean, a week out now, it's got to be incredibly taxing on them. >> there's the stress of the event itself. it wasn't fun to be on the island during the event. i think there's a lot of mixed
7:07 am
emotions. i hear my colleague, dana sowa up the coast, and it just breaks your heart. we feel so fortunate not to have -- but we still have people who lost of most of what they had. this community really has turned its attentions to helping each other. our churches are helping, our ad hoc volunteer organizations are springing up. we're getting resources to people who need them. overall, i think people are rallying to get us back to normal. >> we learned in the wake of this hurricane, only 18% of floridians have flood insurance. you know, a big reason why is it's so expensive. it costs three times more on average, private flood insurance. if you get it through the national flood insurance, there's a cap of $250,000, and
7:08 am
the average home costs more than that across the state. do you think people should rebuild as it was before, or is it too much of a risk? >> well, i think those numbers are very different probably for us on a place like marco island. i think that's an important public policy questions that's way beyond my state of analysis today, but i have no doubt that conversation will be a very lively one as we moved forward. >> what would you like to heard from the president today? >> i have no complaint on up the chain through the state, through the federal emergency management agency. they're very supportive of us. i fully expect to hear president biden say things along that nature. we appreciate that he's willing
7:09 am
to come to florida. >> yeah, no question. mike mcnees, thank you. it's such a beautiful part of this country. that's for sure. we wish you the best in rebuilding. >> thank you, poppy. still to come, former president trump is asking the supreme court to step in. this is in the dispute. the deadline now for the justice department to respond. plus this. i know people by definition, you know, absolutely we have a series of several murders occurring in the city. >> police in stockton, could california, releasing a new video of a person of interested that could be connected to a series of homicides. nasa's nicole mann will be

7:14 am
former president trump's legal team has filed an emergency request with the supreme court, urging the justice to intervene over the summer. trump wants the court to ensure those documents marked as classified are part of the review by the special master. the doj is arguing otherwise. we don't even know if the supreme court is going to take this up, but explain the rather
7:15 am
narrow legal question at stake here. >> poppy, this is just about 100 documents marked as classified that were in those thousands of documents taken out of mar-a-lago in bocks by the fib in august. the judge had appointed a special master to look at everyone that was seized out of mar-a-lago the special master isn't going to be able to review them. the justice department is looking at them in the intelligence community whether there was any harm down to the united states so that's what
7:16 am
this is about. donald trump here in this argument is essentially saying he wants transparency. potentially his team may want to keep the door open on the possibility of whether or not they can argue if these are even clarified. at the end of the day, they are national security records, so we know the justice department will come back in a week, respond from trump's team. we'll see what they say. kaitlan, thank you so much for the reporting. ed a length that really helped
7:17 am
people who aren't that familiar who understand the crux of this. >> yeah, poppy, i think the most important point is the best possible outcome is a very, very narrow win along the lines of what kaitlan was describing. even if he convinces the supreme court to grant his application, to grant the emergency relief, something i think is very doubtful, all we're talking about is the 100 or so classified documents go back into the pile before the judge. it doesn't stop doj from turning to do whatever it's doing. indeed he says we're not challenging that part of the ruling that had blocked the judge's injunction.
7:18 am
i think it's a long shot. i think it's a modest shot. i think it might be why there's lots of sound theories. >> so, joan, the court doesn't have to take it up. they can sort of ignore it, issue one sentence and seer we're not going to consider this, but initially it's in the hands of justice clarence thomas, because he's assigned the eleventh circuit. did you explain to people how the court will design, and frankly from your deep knowledge of the court and this court. do you think they'll take it up? on the one hand they don't want to be viewed as getting in the political weeds, but as eli hoenig said, this is why the a court exists to determine this
7:19 am
it's hard to think something would harm the president, which is a standard they have to assess. should they before convene? i don't think so, but let me tell you how the process works. tip keel a judds will refer the matter to the full court. but we don't know that until they put in the final order.
7:20 am
then the justices would issue after order. the most likely is that it denies the request, and we moved on, but there could be one or two dissents. we just don't know. it's in a fashion where they don't hear oral arguments, why not get rid of it. >> that's a great point, sort of the big-picture point. you pointed out last night, that
7:21 am
that profit. >> yeah, you know, this is not a typically appeal . took place not only work on the merits, about the -- he has to show what the court of appeals is causing him ongoing harm. or maybe the $3 million questions here is what is the harm for taking it out of the pile, at least for the time being.
7:22 am
this would be a different case if it was the watergate case or paula jones suit against clinton. that the justices felt compelled to answer. the entire order was part of the appeal or just the part about the injunction. that is why even this court i think is very unlikely to expend capital, at least at this point. >> i tend to if independence it's always good to agree with joan. >> deeply flattered. thank you very much. a missing family of four.
7:23 am
they saying there's a person of interest in custody, but still no sign of this family. we will bring you that reporting, next. body language when you use dove dry spray?

six homicides. no crimes were caught on camera. stockton police are seeking the public's health. they have increased the reward to $125,000. josh campbell has been following of this and continues to report on it. good morning, josh. >> good morning to you, poppy. the reason why we're not seek a crime on video is they believe the suspect conducted reconnaissance, looking for the location of possible security footage, and then striking at night. he spoke with our colleague cacase casey kasie hunt. she was in a tent when she heard rustling, went outside the tent, confronted by this man who opened fired. she lunged toward him. he eventually left, but she
7:29 am
survive. they don't know if this is within person or more people. at least according to her account, there was at least one man who confronted her. we're learning more details about what was actually taking place in the hours of the shootings. they all took place when things were very dark. when suspects were alone, either walking in their vehicles. in her case, she was inside a tent. the police chief also releasing new video, this is surveillance video of a person of interest. authorities say they don't consider him a suspect, but they're seeing him in multiple locations. >> this is a person period of time interest, where we have seen this individual show up at more than one scene. we haven't seen this individual committing a criminal act, but seems to be showing up in some
7:30 am
of our scenes of homicide. >> reporter: one key item was ballistics. that's something we assumed was the case, but as a former federal agent, the technology over the last three decades has progressed by light years. each weapon leaves a unique marking on those items. here police say they were able to tie these together, using that kind of technology. of course, it's one thing to have the gun, another to have the shoot shooter or shooters in custody. they want to find this person, of course, before they strike again. >> of course, they do. josh campbell, thank you for the reporting. meantime, they do have a person of interest in custody in the kidnapping of a family of four. police say an eight-month-old
7:31 am
girl and her parents have been missing since monday. they found a car that belonged to them is on fire. if the family's uncle is also missing. and in florida, a 27-year-old man faces charges of kidnapping, and using a minor as a human shield. in the comes after he abducted his toddler while armed with a gun, and led deputies in a chase. there was a terrifying standoff. this video we're going to place is very disturbing.

weeks ago from the november midterm elections, several trump-backed candidates are now facing headwinds. chris cillizza joins me with more. walk us through what you're talking about. >> it's not every candy that donald trump endorsed. in arizona, for example, kari lake is running very, very close, being there's a number of them in important states. this is michigan. critical state, obviously, very close in 2016 and 2020. gretchen whitmer, 14 million.
7:38 am
i was an english major in check, not math, but 14 million is more than 1. that's how much she's spent on television. $1 million is how much tudor nixon has spend, why? she's struggled to raise money. any time you're raised by that amount, it's worrisome. the pennsylvania governor's race, this is a race that decides in some ways the election officials in the state. i'm going to write more numbers because they give the ability. 18 to 1, again, not a math major, but 18 is more than 1. $18 million josh shapiro, $1 million doug mastriano. now, it's not just governors
7:39 am
races where this is happens. j.d. vance, trump no many knee struggling against -- and in georgia, herschel walker, a lots of trouble lately, he's struggling -- that's overstating it. he's sort of tied with rafael warnock in probably what would be one of the most competitive races in the country. so you take it all, trump candidates win primaries, struggle in general elections. >> really interesting, cillizza, that herschel walker's team says he raised all this money in a day after that very -- uh, many questions about hypocrisy over his stance on abortion and potentially his own actions prior, but i digress. >> let me go back to georgia for a sec. look, if you had told me that "access hollywood" tape would
7:40 am
come out and donald trump would still win? no way, but now that may be endsville for herschel walker's campaign, but because of what we saw in 2016, i'm not sure we can say that. donald trump is still behind him. >> yeah. >> so i always hesitate to say this will be a big change. in 2016, if i was on air with you, look what happened there. this is a close race, closer certainly. ohio is close. arizona if you're mark kelly, you have to feel pretty good about where you are, but this is a close race. we have to let the whole controversy percolate, and then we'll see what polling says. >> and ultimately let's see what voting does. >> chris cillizza, you have a groovy new podcast out. i'm loving the artwork,
7:41 am
beautifully done, down side up. tell us about it. >> the artwork is meant to convey what it is. what we did, i spend my whole life writing, thinking, what-if possibilities. so what this podcast aims to do. the first one, what if we did not have the ability to know what flavor is? what if we couldn't deal with flavor? historically the spice trade drove a lot of our expansion throughout the world. if we didn't have flavor, we might not have done it. it's fun. it has nothing to do with politics. if you don't like this stuff, i get it, go find that. >> we can get you everywhere now. >> let's hope. that's the goal. >> thank you. congrats. i nope how much work goes into those. >> thank you. ahead, after new york new york ace brazen missile test, the security council is set to

7:45 am
california, mountains, oceans, natural wonders, diverse and creative people. but when the out-of-state corporations behind prop 27 look at california, they see nothing but suckers. they wrote prop 27 to give themselves 90% of the profits from online sports betting in california. other states get much more. why is prop 27 such a suckers deal for california? because the corporations didn't write it for us.
7:46 am
they wrote it for themselves. naomi: every year the wildfires, the smoke seems to get worse. jessica: there is actual particles on every single surface. dr. cooke: california has the worst air pollution in the country. the top 2 causes are vehicles and wildfires. prop 30 helps clean our air. it will reduce the tailpipe emissions that poison our air kevin: and helps prevent the wildfires that create toxic smoke that's why calfire firefighters, the american lung association, and the coalition for clean air support prop 30. naomi: i'm voting yes on 30. this just into cnn. opec plus, that is opec and its allies, to cut oil by 2 million barrels a day.
7:47 am
that is twice what was expected out of this meeting of major oil producers in vienna. obviously that includes saudi arabia, russia, president biden was asked about this moments ago. he said, quote, he is concerned. he called the cut unnext. it's equivalent to about 2% of global oil demand. we'll keep you posted. meantime e. we are about to see a showdown at the united nations between the world's two major powers, united states and china over huge rights abuses, the u.s. and its allies are working to force a debate over atrocities against weicker and other minorities in china. both trump and the biden administration have accused accounts of again oy cried, something the u.n.'s own human rights minister. china has fiercely denied it,
7:48 am
saying they established facilities to housing, as a way to counter, quote, extremism in the region. josh rogan joins me. you wrote a really fascinating, and i think it's not getting enough attention at all. they've never been debated before. >> that's right, poppy. on all 31, they issued a scathing report based on interviews, internal documents and an investigates that lots of other abuses are ongoing right now. at the time kale what would happen, they would launch another investigation but china's working very hard to make sure that doesn't happen.
7:49 am
and the u.s. government and the biden administration to its credit has pushed half to take up this issue, but i'm here to tell you it doesn't look good. and if that takes place, then we will have a situation, where it won't even debate a genocide, or at least a littles crimes, because they're happening on our watch. >> it's going to be close -- some are libya, and pakistan, so these countries are -- it's a whole hypocrisy of the human rights council in the first place, but the biden administration came back in. and if they vote against this,
7:50 am
it will be pretty obvious to the critics that it's useless, and then the biden administration will have egg on its face, but what is really important is the we'rer have a voice in the international forum. if they can't even get a debate, the cries for help will go unheard. >> again, i would just reiteration it was both mike pompeo, and both the trump administration and the biden administration, both said yes, china is carrying out genocide here. what would the impact be if the biden administration, if the u.s. were actually successful in forcing this vote. would there be a material impact to the people, po the uighur and other minority populations in china? >> i think that's a great question. when i talk to uighur activists, what they say is, it doesn't really -- the definition of genocide, which is a legal
7:51 am
determination is one thing, but what they really need is action and more international attention to the suffering of their families. they're just not getting it. yes, if the human rights council were to take up this issue, that would open the door for a lot of other things. it would validate their claims. but it would not be enough. it's very clear that it -- but also in their own view to stop the atrocities. that could be sanging, that would be visa brands, none of these thing are ease, but doing nothing enables the atrocities. there's been a pressure to help
7:52 am
ease inflation. we can't it also factors into that decision making. >> absolutely. either human rights as a priority, or it isn't, and solar panels, all of those other things are part of the overall picture. >> and it's it a real question of where human rights stand and what you stand for. thanks for writing it. thank for coming on and talking about it. >> thank you. still ahead, counting down to liftoff at kennedy space center. today's manned spacex mission will be led by a woman for the first time. the first female commander of a nasa spacex crew. that's next. i say, “so are they.”
7:55 am
7:57 am
right now four people are preparing to blast off on nasa's historic crew 5 mission. nicole mann will be the first nayive american woman to go into orbit, also the first woman to command a spacex flight. good morning, mari. this is the mission of many, many first. >> there is, this is an international group, one from japan and one from russian. this is the first time we've had a cosmonaut fly on an american spaceship in 20 years. ana kikida is the russian cosmonaut. she's reintegrated what's been a international program.
7:58 am
and nicole mann is the first female commander, and the first native american woman to fly into space. everything is looking good today. the flight had been delayed as a result of hurricane ian, but now the weather, as you see, is almost perfect. they'd a few minor issues, but they have those rectified, here is nicole mann representing all the firsts she represents. >> i think it's important that young girls realize they have these leadership opportunities for them, but from an operational perspective, to be honest, it really doesn't matter if you're a woman or a man, or what country you're from, our your gender or your race. we have coming together as a human race. our mission on board the international space station of developing the technology and research to benefit all of humankind is really what brings us together.
7:59 am
>> unity has been one of the messages. anna kikina is the first cosmonaut. all of the tensions have been pushed to the side. it's been talking about unity and working together, which of course is the message nasa wants. when we talk about nicole. they're allow to bring their own private mementoes. she was asked what she's bringing. she said it's a gift that she got from her mother long ago, a dream catcher. of course, significant ties to the culture from which she comes, and also it represents the dreams that now are about to come true. pop,? >> how is that for a beautiful story, as she heads up on a history-making mission. that's for sure. martin, thank you so much. thanks to all of you for joining us today. i'm poppy harlow. at this hour with erica hill starts right now.
